Brandon Marshall Talks to John Harbaugh at Super Bowl

We were playing connect the dots yesterday as we wondered whether or not Bears wide receiver Brandon Marshall might follow his former head coach Marc Trestman to the Ravens. Now we find out that Marshall, who moonlights as a host on Showtime’s Inside the NFL, spoke with John Harbaugh, who appeared on several NBC segments during Super Bowl week.

Specifically, Marshall asked Harbaugh if he would allow him to continue working for the show if he played for the Ravens, to which Harbaugh said “oh, absolutely.” The Bears were reportedly not happy with Marshall’s side job this past season even though it only required him to travel to New York on Tuesdays, his day off.
